Rock Into the Sky with This King of Fighters XIV “Another World Theme” Remix

The King of Fighters has always been known for having great music, and the latest installment–The King of Fighters XI–is no exception. The new game adds some new themes to the existing canon, one of which is “Magical Sky,” the whimsical-sounding theme of the Another World team.

While the theme is pretty good in itself, Gaute Vist Grong decided it could use a bit more rock and a hell of a lot more metal. The result is this heavy guitar remix that retains some of the original theme’s whimsy through the use unique instruments, such as a Japanese shakuhachi flute, to back up the guitars.

Give this rockin’ remix a listen below.
